“With a spectacular photographic look at such beloved sights as Coit Tower, the Golden Gate Bridge, cable cars creeping up Hyde Street, and an array of San Francisco's famous parades and social happenings, the best selling San Francisco celebrates everyone's favorite city. The 220 color photos of the city are enhanced by interesting and colorful essays by seven of San Francisco's best-known writers. This delightful book is now in its fifth printing.”

“Following Morton Beebe's photographs is like being led by the hand to all the best spots and parties at all the best times. A superb photographic essay on the world's most photogenic city, it sets new standards for power and elegance.”
